45. "rather specific"

4. here is more about Israel's leafletting

During the 2008-9 Israeli military assault on Gaza, the army sent thousands of similar messages to mobile phones in Gaza. But according to several friends and acquaintances who were there, the messages were often either false alarms or designed to sow panic. “What do you do if you receive a message warning you to go a safer place if you are already in the safest place in Gaza, or if you have nowhere to hide?” one friend asked rhetorically.

This same woman — a journalist — said that often the text messages would warn of impending bombardments that did not happen, in a sick version of The Boy Who Cried Wolf.

11. I've never known of a terrorist to give a specific warning like that.

14. You should read about the IRA

They had a system of codewords that they'd contact the media with, so that everyone would know the warning they sent in that they were about to bomb somewhere was genuine. That way, they got to make people panic, do what the IRA told them, and then claim that they had concerns for 'civilians'.

15. They did it beforehand and with ample time to escape?

16. They placed the bombs, then phoned in that it was about to go off

A bit different from "we will bomb/shell your house tomorrow", but then they didn't have planes or artillery with unlimited movement. People typically had minutes to evacuate the area, though the warning wouldn't be specific enough to allow a bomb disposal squad to find and defuse it in time.

35. Not really - the IRA just liked to play the same PR games as the US military does.

e.g., "They gave a warning" that was for the wrong location (different town ) and also
omitted to "warn" about the second bomb that was placed in the evacuation zone
and timed to detonate a minute or so after the first one.

40. Since when have terrorists given warning?

Israel is trying to minimize casualties while Hamas is telling residents to ignore the warnings and hopes to create civilian deaths for their sick propaganda. More proof that Hamas doesn't give a shit about the it's citizens welfare.

30. LOL, indeed. Where do you come up with this shit? Seriously. eom

32. The contents of the leaflets are posted in this thread

Everything else I've written is just undisputed facts. Israel has no control over internal movement in Gaza - and a miniscule percentage of the population of Gaza have been casualties of Israeli attacks.

One would think you would know these things being such an avid follower.
